First things first, I don't really care for the "terms" of minnows, whales, or dolphins or whatever else. We're all people.

It's so good to hear someone else saying this!

The point is to not go chasing "what you think people want to read." Post things that matter to you and find people that like the same things. Don't beg them to upvote or follow you. Engage on their posts and trust that if they are being real and know that you are too, then they will be checking out your stuff as well.
